Hi! My name is Gabriela, but you can call me Ella.
You are not alone. Often in life, we feel alone or misunderstood. You are not alone in this experience, which may feel isolating and dark. Sitting in this experience can be scary and difficult to overcome. However, I believe therapy can help shine a light and make the darkness lighter. As a therapist, I would like to support and assist you in this journey of self-discovery and building the person you want to be.
I support my clients in understanding what they need to re-establish and reconnect with themselves and others. My approach is based on post-modern approaches.
I have experience with teens, young adults, and adults. Additionally, I have experience working with couples and individuals who are experiencing difficulties with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and communication. The most important thing for me is hearing my clients' stories and collaborating with them to make them the heroes of their stories.
I like to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for my client’s exploration and journey of self.
